Arrow - Season 4 - Marc Guggenheim Interested In Bringing Constantine In

May 12, 2015

Share on Reddit


“Arrow” showrunner Marc Guggenheim admitted that “there’s a lot of desire on everyone’s part” to bring the character into the shared DC TV universe he created with Andrew Kreisberg and Greg Berlanti, telling Variety, “It would be wonderful and we certainly have a million ideas — it’s hard for me to say mainly because A: it’s not my decision to make and B: with ‘Constantine’ being shopped around to other networks… it’s really hard to make plans when a show’s kind of in limbo.”

Even The Arrow himself, Stephen Amell, was seemingly pushing for a crossover between the two properties before NBC swung the ax. During a recent panel at Wizard World Philadelphia Comic Con, Amell spoke about the interconnected nature of the DC TV universe.

While John Constantine would arguably be a natural addition to the “Arrow” universe given the comic book character’s familiarity with supernatural phenomena, Guggenheim cautioned that, “a lot of the pieces are in place, except for that one final piece, which is what’s the fate of ‘Constantine’? That’s the tricky thing. But it comes up in the writers’ room constantly — we have a number of ideas, one idea that’s particularly exciting to me. We’re in a little bit of a wait-and-see mode, like you guys are.”

  1. That's actually exciting!

  2. Fingers crossed! I would watch the hell out of Constantine if it is saved somehow.

    ReplyDelete
  3. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE (please please please)

    ReplyDelete
  4. Zed and Chas too, please!

    ReplyDelete
  5. I love how everyone is trying to save the show, Great to hear that it has this huge support behind it, not many shows deserve that kind of support but this one certainly does.


    Constantine really got dealt the worst card with its friday slot and Grimm as a lead in

    ReplyDelete
  6. Mhm, mhm. I understand. Mhm. So to conclude "please"?

    ReplyDelete
  7. Interesting. I really wanted to get into Constantine, but didn't when I heard it was probably getting cancelled.

    ReplyDelete
  8. This sounds awful. The two shows are so, SO incompatible. Also, stop launching/investing in other shows through Arrow.

    ReplyDelete
  9. Possibly lol. But season one of Constantine in my opinion, was great. And with the Lazarus Pit — Marc could make it work. He is such a talented writer and I can e n v i s i o n it so seamlessly! (!!!!!)

    ReplyDelete
  10. Well, not anymore. The Flash got sci-fi elements while Arrow is heavy with fantasy elements as of recently, with the Lazarus pit being a thing now Constantine showing up doesen't sound like that much of a stretch.


    The crossover could be in Arrows realm of fantasy, John shows up in Starling and helps Oliver to find out about the Lazarus pits origin

    ReplyDelete
  11. LOL he's to blame for this season's mess.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Season one was outstanding BUT


    Mark really messed up this season of Arrow, talented? Maybe. Showcasing it right now? Certainly not

    ReplyDelete
  13. Well you couldn't blame them since Flash,it's spin-off is able to pull 1.2-1.5 ratings enough to tie/beat with shows from the big 4 networks. Constantine's characters are old though so I don't think it goes well with the CW crowd. Also their schedule is already full so this might not happen at all.

    ReplyDelete
  14. God NO!!!...I would prefer if another network picked this up.Please NO!

    ReplyDelete
  15. Either way, I think we will have Constantine on Arrow somehow, and I love that.


    Heck, even if no network picks up the show, we will have Matt Ryan being John here and there in the rest of the DCTVU

    ReplyDelete
  16. True, true. Idk. I felt like season three started off really strong, and then got convoluted after Oliver died.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Awesome. Just f*cking awesome.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Magic and powers are already a thing in arrow and it shares the same universe with Flash.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Also, Vixen already is bringing in the supernatural. I'm excited for the opportunities in the DCTVU. Marvel proved that you can have different tones on a shared universe, and it makes me so in the idea of the CW shows growing together.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Especially if Darhk has something to do with the Pit, considering his age (and I believe they've mentioned him as having a pit or something).

    ReplyDelete
  21. Grimm isn't a bad lead in though. It's solid does well on Friday and has a fan base of a similar interest. It got the worst deal though true.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Grimm was able to premiere with 2.1 ratings on Friday. I remember people were mocking it at the time saying it's a flop yet here we are now 4 Seasons under it's belt. It didn't even have a comic following yet it managed to survive. Look who's the flop now?

    ReplyDelete

    I believe that is kinda what Stephen Amell wanted the crossover to be.

    Constantine shows up and demands that Oliver hand over the Lazarus Pit and they come into conflict over it. In part because Constantine shows up out of nowhere and Oliver can't trust him.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Don't worry I don't think they would since their schedule is already full. CW's upfronts is on May 14 so will now if they ever pick this up. Good luck.

    ReplyDelete
  25. It would be so awesome if The CW picked up Constantine. I know they have no room, but they could bring it as a summer show and have some crossover episodes in which Constantine comes to the Flarrow universe and vice-versa. It would be incredibly awesome!


    If Constantine gets picked up somewhere, I'll defenitely watch, especially if it gets on The CW roster

    ReplyDelete
  26. However Grimm had time to establish its own fanbase, premiering something on a friday night isn't a smart move by any means.

    ReplyDelete
  27. This one of those things that sounds cool at first, but the more I think of it the less I like the idea.
    Maybe a short 3 to 5 episode arc on Arrow? Better yet...


    Maybe Constantine could take on a Dr Strange kind of role (mixing comic universes I know) dealing with all things mystical and occult for the makeshift Justice League on Legends of Tomorrow?


    Honestly though it feels like another distraction or tangent to pull Arrow away from what made it so good the first two years.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Premiering something on a friday is a bad decision altogether, Grimm premiered on thursday nights. Unlike Constantie wich got the raw end of the deal

    ReplyDelete
  29. The love and support Constantine has received has been spectacular.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I'm so anxious for Vixen (btw. Canary is supposed to appear as well :D) to finally premiere.


    Finally the CWSeed is getting some great original programing (the only show on that web-network I considered top notch was Play it Again, Dick)


    I'm really hoping for a DC-TV Boxset to be released once all is done including all DCU shows

    ReplyDelete
  31. Probably I would want Darhk to be more of a military villain. We had the mystical one this season, Darhk could (and should) deviate from this seasons set tone

    ReplyDelete
  32. That could work, if the crossover worked by Arrows rules this could really be something to remember

    ReplyDelete
  33. Uh it premiered on Friday not Thursday. It premiered on October 28, 2011 which is Friday. If it were CW I would've agreed with you since they put shows there to die/for syndication but it's NBC which has a bigger audience.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Christopher DeBonoMay 12, 2015 at 1:42 AM

    Part of me thinks that wont happen since they didn't do it for the DCAU. Infact I'm still waiting for a box set of Static Shock and The Zeta Project. WB acts like they don't exist.

    ReplyDelete
  35. It looks like something they say to cheer up fans and then nothing happens. I suppose there were some shows that ended with nasty cliffhangers so the writers promised a TV movie to end them properly and such projects don't last. :(

    ReplyDelete
  36. Christopher DeBonoMay 12, 2015 at 1:46 AM

    Ugh I'm still waiting for that Samurai Jack movie they promised back in 2004.
    It will come...someday.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Grimm premiered on Friday against the World Series with 1.0 or so Chuck as lead-in, after no promotion and being an afterthought for NBC. It was widely considered a resounding success.

    ReplyDelete
  38. There's a difference between animated show DVD releases and live action shows.


    But you're probably right. It won't happen :(

    ReplyDelete
  39. true theCW had its deathslot there. Hmmm, well the failure Constantine had is hard to explain tbh.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Don't think this could work well in Arrow, but guven that I hated this season im open to anything.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Christopher DeBonoMay 12, 2015 at 1:58 AM

    I have to wonder if some other countries where distribution is handled by a 3rd party might get something though.

    TVD In Japan gets such better releases then we do. They get information booklets and necklaces and other stuff included.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Really? Didn't know that o.O
    But they're region locked so not in the cards for us anyway

    ReplyDelete
  43. That would be awesome!

    ReplyDelete
  44. Christopher DeBonoMay 12, 2015 at 2:02 AM

    http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B00D69CP28?keywords=The+Vampire+Diaries

    Comes with promotional cards, a necklace and a character booklet.

    ReplyDelete
  45. dayum, that's some sweet a** swag :O


    Would love to have something like that, I'm a sucker for fancy DVD boxsets

    ReplyDelete
  46. There are a few options though:
    - You could buy a region free DVD player
    - Buy the region blocked set and watch them on PC hooked up to TV
    - Buy them and rip them or convert them to NTSC...
    (A pain though I know)...

    ReplyDelete
  47. Dude, you arwe trying too hard.
    Let it die.
    I bet they are beggin CW to take the show.

    ReplyDelete
  48. I know, I got one but when I buy box sets its usually to enjoy the seasons in hi-def in the best way possible.


    There're a few foreign shows I bought for my region free player (some german sketch show called Switch, seriously...watch it. If you speak a little german you'll love it)

    ReplyDelete
  49. Yep, I hear you...
    I only buy non-Region 1 stuff if there is no other option... so rarely.
    It used to be mostly for live concert DVDs I guess.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Oh god that would be so sweet! I wouldn't leave my house for a month!!!

    ReplyDelete
  51. Probably will. It's HIVE not the league. I agree to should because seasons should differentiate themselves from each other. Like how in four Oliver will probably be Green Arrow.

    ReplyDelete
  52. True, but even right off the bat Grimm had pretty good numbers for the timeslot. Which is weird.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Dont forget aliens with supergirl and legend of tomorrow in the universe

    ReplyDelete
  54. Kreisberg said they want each season to feel like a new adventure, kinda like Buffy. So I'm hoping for that to happen.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Probably but if I'm not mistaken when Grimm started there was a massive drought going on for mystery shows.


    In fact I've got the first season box set for Grimm right next to me, never watched it...

    ReplyDelete
  56. For me its the other way around, I only buy region 1 box sets and at times buy some region 2 stuff (usually UK, german, french and italian DVDs) for the more....genre-y stuff. Some shows might lack subtitles but that's what I got my degree for amirite :P

    ReplyDelete
  57. since we're talking about DVDs already....any particular reason stv doesen't cover DVD/BluRay releases or informs us when something isn't coming out at all? Would be a section I'd really appreciate

    http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Time-Season-4/21086

    ReplyDelete
  58. Maybe The CW will shock us all and announce they've saved Constantine at their presentation. Hey a guy can (and will) dream.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Christopher DeBonoMay 12, 2015 at 2:28 AM

    I believe we used to have a chart or something but I don't think it was popular. I'll let Darkufo know and see whats up.

    ReplyDelete
  60. You should it's pretty good. Good cast, good mythology. Starts slow though.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Well that seems to be the pattern so far.

    ReplyDelete
  62. If Supergirl is officially brought in.

    ReplyDelete
  63. thanks, tell him I'd offer myself as contributer for that. I'm usually staying up to date about DVD/BluRay releases for shows anyway

    ReplyDelete
  64. Sounds neat, I guess I'll bingewatch it :)


    Thanks btw. since its already on season 4 it's bound to be good

    ReplyDelete
  65. The EP said in a EW interview its in the same universe

    ReplyDelete
  66. Not entirely, season 1 and 2 felt like one story in terms of style and tone. Both villains had similar plans and executions. Meanwhile 3 feels tone wise unique compared to 1/2.


    Really hoping for 4 to create its own style with similar uniqueness to this one (not a fan of this season BUT style wise I applaud their willingness to move the show away from urban street crimefighting to...this)

    ReplyDelete
  67. I just want Constantine saved, don't care how. I really enjoyed that show.

    ReplyDelete
  68. IT's kind of been an ad hock system with people reporting what they like or discover, but for a couple months there was one person posting about upcoming DVD releases exclusively. I think he got busy with school or work as I recall and the regular post disappeared.

    ReplyDelete
  69. I believe GA is suppose to crime fighter that patrols the streets of SC stopping any criminal......Oliver is believe to care about the small fish instead of big fish like Ra's and the league. Yes the buffy influence is there

    ReplyDelete
  70. Darhk being a military villain could be interesting......maybe HIVE owned company set up some private security force because of the failure of SCPD to prevent three terrorism attacks.

    ReplyDelete
  71. I wasn't clear.
    I'm the same way for the most part. I buy Region 1 whenever I can and only buy other regions (non-Region 1) if that is the only format available.


    Mostly UK or Scandi series, but with some Italian and German Even one or two Icelandic series I guess.. I need the subtitles though! I can understand some German, but not enough to get the details or nuances. Luckily most sets I have came with English subs or I found them online. Not a huge deal for me since I watch most everything through an HTPC anyway.

    ReplyDelete
  72. Didn't a show like Chuck survive because of the fan base?

    ReplyDelete
  73. Please don't. Just no. No. Nope. nope. Nope. Nope. (Shakes head rapidly)

    ReplyDelete
  74. Yes but that was because they were able to launch a fan campaign to get Subway to take up the costs of much of the show.

    ReplyDelete
  75. That'd be sick. Magic is already a thing, and John Constantine interacting with Oliver Queen? The snark would be beautiful.

    ReplyDelete
  76. Also heard the opposite from CBS.

    ReplyDelete
  77. Not to me. I'm not with you on this one. Sorry. Constantine needs to be saved first, get that out the way, before making crossover plans with a show that can no longer be crossed over with. I'm tired of all this crap. And I don't want to see it on Arrow. There's too much going on already.

    ReplyDelete
  78. Too much we have no idea about season 4 yet, and this could tie into Thea's effects.

    ReplyDelete
  79. sure, he's a street level crime fighter but TV shows always tend to go bigger and more explosive. I doubt that season 4 will be smaller in scale.


    I can't see Darhk being the big bad for season 4 either, remember so far Arrow has only featured DC powerhouse characters as big bads: Merlyn, Green Arrows arch nemisis -> Deathstroke, one of DCs biggest multi hero villains -> Ra's Al Guhl, Batmans 3rd nemisis


    No way they're not going to up their game and use someone big

    ReplyDelete
  80. that would be indeed awesome, like the city being under siege by a military faction in a big-brother esque enviroment could be cool

    ReplyDelete
  81. depends on how the show will be doing. If it's a success for CBS they'll do everything to keep the universes appart and keep their piece of the cake, if it's moderate in ratings they might try it as a ratings stunt. If it's a failure they'll scrap the show after 13 episodes and never mention it again

    ReplyDelete
  82. Woud certainly be a shocker at the upfronts. Thursday can't come soon enough


    However....I really can't see the CW squeezing in another show

    ReplyDelete
  83. I didn't even know that, so Community isn't the only show with a subway connection :P

    ReplyDelete
  84. Yeah it's actually really unique, as the fans solely caused it.

    ReplyDelete
  85. Well if it is cancelled but does exist in the Flarrowverse she'll probably still guest once in a while.

    ReplyDelete
  86. probably the only time fans actually changed something

    ReplyDelete
  87. And this is where I'm hoping DC actually does put their foot down.

    ReplyDelete
  88. Yeah they're really crossing their signals with respect to that. They need to clear the air on that matter ASAP.

    ReplyDelete
  89. BRING HIM IN!!!!!!! PLEASE BRING HIM IN!!!!!!! and throw Chas and Zed in there too PRETTY PLEASE!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  90. When did you heard this the information i read came when the series got pick up they said they wont do a crossover anytime due to being on different network but the two networks is own by WB

    ReplyDelete
  91. Anytime soon forgot to the word in there

    ReplyDelete
  92. agree with you on this one...not only would it be just absolutely absurd, but Constantine needs much much work done to it first...writing, plot, and story needs to be completely revamped and supporting characters changed..even though Im an Arrow fan, it as well needs to find its footing on the direction its going...would be a complete disaster to even consider incorporating a black magic spiritual type of world into a show thats just now beginning connect the dots character wise...

    ReplyDelete
  93. Christopher DeBonoMay 12, 2015 at 4:34 AM

    Only way I could see The CW squeezing it in would be if it gets the Agent Carter treatment.

    6-8 episodes from early Jan to late Feb to bridge the Arrow break. Then Arrow could take one less break later on in the season. However Flash would need something then too, otherwise they'll become disjointed again.

    ReplyDelete
  94. Nice. Constantine on CW would make CWverse "features-complete". The three branches of DC were always human strenght (aka..vigilantes without powers), which Arrow fills, then science (superpowers and supertechnology) which are being realized by Flash and Legends of Tommorrow and magic. Only the last branch is missing and there two characters stand tall above everything else - Constantine and Timothy Hunter.

    ReplyDelete
  95. No thanks. Whilst I like Constantine, I dont see the need for all this crossover business. Constantine needs to be its own show and so does Arrow.

    ReplyDelete
  96. Arrow is its own show. So is Flash, yet they crossover. A shared universe where they interact is no detriment to this. And who says Constantine will even exist next year?

    ReplyDelete
  97. I don't know if that would flow for me. Constantine may be in the DC universe but it's got quite a different feel than Arrow and The Flash.

    ReplyDelete
  98. I'm gonna be honest here I couldn't get past the pilot of Constantine. Not at all. (and i glanced a few episodes) BUT I did save all the episodes, I was going to catch up. THEN we just now find out it gets cancelled. So I JUST erased all 11 episodes off my DVR yesterday. Cause what's the point? Ya know? Anyways, now they want to try and save this show. Umm ok?? W/e You got it floating around networks trying to find it's landing. Do NOT put it in my freaking show. CW cannot afford to pick this up, and crossover over two networks??? Are you serious?? That's not going to work. And I'm sorry but I don't want to see this actor who plays John in my universe at all. Two totally different tones. No. I'm going to be completey turned off. As much as I love Arrow they have a lot of work to do for season 4. I'd like them to concentrate on the characters we have now and fix the mess that was season 3. Not promote a freaking Hellblazer for better ratings b/c Constantine's show went up in flames. (Pun not intended). If his show does not get picked up by ANYONE else, we should not be picking up his mess period. TPTB are trying way too hard. It's getting really ridiculous.

    ReplyDelete
  99. Constantine is gonna be forever or its gonna go down in flames. You can tell me when it's over and if the show was worth the pain. Got a long list of new shows they'll tell you they're insane but I got a blank space baby and Constantine it's your name .

    ReplyDelete
  100. Christopher DeBonoMay 12, 2015 at 5:59 AM

    Star Trek is the most infamous for it I think. The original was cancelled after 2 seasons but due to a massive worldwide letter writing campaign it was brought back for a 3rd season.

    It was cancelled again after the 3rd season but another massive worldwide letter writing campaign took place which led to the Animated Series.

    Roswell I believe was also renewed for a 2nd and 3rd season due to people sending in Tabasco.

    ReplyDelete
  101. I thought the Arrow universe was going to remain grounded in reality. Not sure how Constantine would merge in.

    ReplyDelete
  102. YES too much! As in they need to just focus on Arrow and Flash. Not constantly take on other projects to keep promoting DC characters. Crossing them over, spinning them off, etc etc. They're taking on too much at once and everything will become one big mess. It's already a mess. By taking on all this crap, Arrow definitely needs work for season 4, as, let's face it this season was pretty lackluster.(Forgive me Arrow Cast) They took on Flash, great! Concentrated a lot on that, HOWEVER, even some of the crossovers they did just didn't work, and many fans kinda got over it quickly (b/c some felt forced and unnecessary) only wanting it if necessary. Not to mention the network completely f*cked up the scheduling thus screwing up our timeline completely, leaving fans confused like they're drunk in the street, scratching their heads asking which way is home. It was exhausting. When Flash became such a hit, they wanted to make another little spin off with this craptastic character Atom. Why b/c they got all gassed up over the success of Flash. This alone, they're already over their heads, b/c Atom alone was not going to bring in millions and millions of fans, so what do they do?? They bring in fan favorites, from their two previous shows, so this Legends of Tomorrow show can be watchable right?? Bring back Sara Lance from the dead, Victor Garber, Hawkgirl, probably Colton (if he's the one going to be in all three shows). A variety of others. Oh y. Of h and they promise more crossovers. NOW, how the hell are they going to handle all this properly when they couldn't even get it right after two-three spin offs with Arrow and Flash?? And that was only TWO shows, now they have three. On top of that you've got rumors floating around about Supergirl possibly having a crossover (from a different network), and the damn series hasn't even started yet, now you want to use Constantine too?? A show that's waiting in the wings, and literally has no network now??? WTF are they doing??? Nooo. It's too much!!!

    No, what they need to do is stay focused on Arrow, (Get it back on track), focus on Season 2 of Flash, and their new project LOT, and that is IT! They're trying way too hard, next thing you'll know they'll have Gotham on our shit after season 2 Plummets. UGH!

    ReplyDelete
  103. Slow hand clap? = /

    ReplyDelete
  104. Not gonna lie. That felt like an overreaction. He mentioned he wanted to do it. That means jack all as a statement. No finality, nothing. All the crossovers have been great besides 1x18 of the Flash. And Arrow hasn't been perfect, and not as good as two story wise, but really lacklustre is pushing it. And I like Ray and the new spin-off (which no one has seen yet) so this pessimism feels way too strong about a possible one episode guest star that probably won't even ever happen. Even if Arrow's quality is to do with the Flash (which at best is correlation not causation) I very much doubt the CW and the show runners wouldn't do it if they think they couldn't handle it given the passion they clearly have for these shows and the bringing in of a new co-showrunner in season 4.

    ReplyDelete
  105. Lol ^_^ Nope just was waiting for someone to include flames In their post

    ReplyDelete
  106. Not overreacting at all. And I originally said they should wait to see if Constantine gets picked up before making all these wish lists. They have too much going on as I said. And I sure stand by it. CW cannot save this show. In fact i feel they shouldn't. (If it doesn't well, so be it) evan if it were Constantine's last resort, They wouldn't have room even if they wanted to. And you're telling me i'm overracting? I think that's calling the kettle black since you seem to be so gun ho about it. "He mentioned he wanted to do it. That means jack all as a statement. No finality, no nothing." Ok well if that's the case why even bother to get so excited about it?? If it's not going to happen there's no reason to be so optimistic about it. If i can get turned off by some wish list and you can get happy about one, then i don't see the issue. And if it's not going to happen (as you say) then what's the difference? I should be allowed to be turned off just as you are turned on. (No pun intended)

    "All the crossovers have been great besides 1x18" Ok but that's your opinion. You wouldn't believe how many people iI saw all over the internet getting frustrated after the third crossover, saying they were over it. (which i was very surprised about) Then you had others who didn't even watch both shows, they'd watch one or the other then have all these questions. (Which I personally found very irritating). It's not pessmistic it's realism, and your optimism is being clouded by the bigger picture. (and i'm sorry to say but a lot of fans are not as forthcoming towards Ray as you are, i've seen a lot of hate towards him and LOT, so i truly do feel it was necessary that TPTB bring in all those extra people, especially Sara b/c they knew they made a huge mistake killing her off. They wanted to make some type of smart move.) You want to fanboy over this fine, i'm not going to stop you, by all means, be my guest. But taking on too many projects, crossing over networks will be a big mess and you can't say "one episode." B/c IF Constantine got picked Back up and IF Marc actually wanted to make it happen, I think it's pretty fair to say we all know them by now and in THIS universe, there is no such thing as "one episode guest star."

    "I very much doubt the CW and the Show runners wouldn't do it if they think they couldn't handle it." Well i I beg to differ as you see how screwed up the second half of both shows turned out. (With scheduling and timelines)

    ReplyDelete
  107. I like Arrow (the mess that is season 3 aside), but if this happens I might drop the show instantly. Keep Arrow grounded!

    ReplyDelete
  108. They changed their minds after Flarrow

  109. And what's next? Him appearing on the Flash? Hell no. I don't want to see him near Barry or any of the Flash cast.

    The way he treats women he will twist any woman who is brought on to the show and you can say no to John bisexuality the way he treats that on Arrow

  114. But the meta humans on flash have a pseudo scientific explanation for their existence. Bringing angels, demons and magic onto the canvas seems odd. DC has never crossed these guys over into the Constantine universe have they?

  115. Hell no. I agree it should be brought to CW, but beyond that is out of the question. Certain things in the DC Universe should stay the comics. Here on Arrow they have barely scratched the surface of Oliver Queen's origin story and they want to enter Constantine that will never work. Not to mention the way The Flash is working out now and the way they will enter the time travel in the end of the season. Without being able to produce Superman, Batman and a lot of the others big names i don't see the point of Constantine being part of it.

  116. I love Arrow. I love Constantine too. But both together. No. I hope not. I would be happy if CW picks Constantine up next season. Maybe a summer show? But crossovers with other Flarrow shows. I don't want that. IMO it won't fit well. If it happens I hope it is a small cameo like FIRESTORM one this season on Flash.


    Also my main reason is I don't want Arrow to concentrate on any other recurring heroes in season 4. A recurring main villain. Yes. But they need to concentrate on their regulars. Give them all good character development. I don't want another Ray, Sara(I love you bb) situation.

  117. Lazarus Pit is now in this world and that was the planned way in for Constantine anyway.

  118. Well, I wrote a spec script for season 3's mid-season return a couple of months ago which had Raven drawn to Starling after Oliver's "death", which was a potential tie-in for the Teen Titans TNT show and which would eventually lead to Constantine coming as well because of an increase in supernatural disturbances - so I would actually be very interested to see how Constantine plays out in the Arrow world. Weird how that turns out - if it does ever.

  119. jesus,why? because Constantine was cancelled? they want to bring him.. yeah, no mention of Superman etc.. but wee need Constantine.. no!

  120. Constantine started out in the mainstream DC Universe through guest apperances in 'Swamp Thing' and snuck around pulling strings from the shadows as Crisis on Infinite Earths played out (running into Batman a couple of times and messing around with Arkham Asylum). Once the Vertigo brand was launched he migrated there for the Hellblazer comic. The Vertigo world was always considered separate from the "main DCU" and he wasn't seen too often (but popped by Hal Jordan's funeral). He reappeared at the end of Blackest Night/Brighest day though and as of The New 52 the character is fully part of the main universe again.

  121. Oh. Excellent point.

    ReplyDelete
  122. Well, glad you agree with me.

    ReplyDelete
  123. thank you for that info. I read Crisis on Infinite Earths but when it came out. I don't remember Constantine from there.

    ReplyDelete
  124. Nah. He was only shown in the Crisis related issues of Swamp Thing.

    ReplyDelete
  125. Ah. That explains it. I was never a Swamp Thing reader. It took a really long time for me to get a taste for the other types/genre of stories that comics told. And when I made that discovery it was V and Preacher that grabbed my attention.

    ReplyDelete
  126. V for Vendetta and Preacher are masterpieces. You've got good taste. If you want to explore more of what Vertigo offers I heartily recomend Transmetropolitan, Y the last man and of course the biggest of them all Neil Gaiman's Sandman.

    ReplyDelete
  127. We do have excellent taste

  132. Its cool. I'm really random myself, so I get it. No worries.

  133. LOVED Sandman. I will definitely look into Transmetropolitan and Y the last man. Thanks for the recommendations.

  134. Shannon it's a possible crossover not a commitment to running a fourth show, so yes assuming it will derail the timeline and somehow shatter quality of Arrow and the Flash is too much. I see the big picture. I see the timeline problems people have, I get and agree it's an issue (though I can usually work out when they're intended to take place so it's not really a problem for me). Probably for the same reason all those actors are vouching for Constantine, as a show of solidarity and to save it. But even then I very much doubt the writers will repeat the same timeline mistakes that people fear since they clearly see them (as shown by Guggenheim's recent interview), and will resolve to make sure that they accommodate better to ensure they don't happen again. Difference is I'm excited at the possibility, but recognize it'll never happen probably and the issues that go along with it, but don't assume anything definite or the worst because Guggenheim merely expressed a desire. He's also expressed a desire to make Supergirl part of the universe, but we all know CBS doesn't really want that.

  135. The idea sounds cool, but I'd prefer he just do Arrow. If it ever happened.

    ReplyDelete
  136. 1) You already know I'm a Marvel girl, and You're DC, so i'm not even going to touch that.
    2) I'm not going to get into this with you. Especially since i just saw the new headline posted. Which turned me off altogether. I'd rather not take my anger out on you. So i'm putting a pin in this.

    ReplyDelete
  137. That's probably a good idea.
